My dog, Chelsea, a 11-month-old puppy, has been itching and biting herself on the knees, paw, ankle, and occasionally the tail for a couple of months. She was on steroidal treatment for a mite, which temporarily reduced the itching, but it returned worse after the treatment. She has also become irritable. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 3-year-old pit bull mix has skin issues and a grain allergy. She has been showing signs of hip dysplasia, such as lazy sitting, difficulty walking on hard floors, jumping on beds or couches, and sensitivity to touch in her rear legs. She has trouble walking up/down stairs and jumping in/out of the car. She sits with her legs off to the side and is in pain, especially during winter. What can I do to help her, especially if I can't afford expensive procedures or medications?
